Our entire Three Sisters crop this year got fucking demolished by a heat wave followed by massive rainfall.
I guess that's just this year's once-in-a-lifetime climate event.
Our pumpkins and beans didn't do so well last season either. Our corn went great though. I think we got the timing wrong. Gonna try doing them all direct sow next season and plant a few in punits as a back up. Letting them do the timing naturally seems like a easier way to go. I gotta stop acting like I'm smarter than a seed.
I've started preparing a vegetarian pasta (angel hair seems best fit to me but use the noodle you prefer) that's just a bunch of chopped seasonal veggies, garlic slooooowly sautéed in olive oil, a can of olives, can of chickpeas, and whatever cheese or cheese substitute you prefer. I eat it like 3 times a week because it's just so delicious but I have been tearing through garlic.
I don't know what I'm trying to say here, but I like this image.
We've been putting whole bulbs in the oven when we bake stuff. We still have like 10 Kg from last season.
This is beautiful. My garlic is doing great this year, but I only have a small patch of a out 20 plants.
